1. After seeing Bunga Bunga be a candidate for Oxford Dictionary's word of the year I have added getting a word in the Oxford Dictionary onto my lifetime bucket list.
1B. Unfortunately blogger does not recognize Bunga Bunga as a word yet.
2A. You can always count on family dinners with friends to bring out embarrassing stories and things you would have liked to forget. But after the third or fourth time it happens you start enjoying the embarrassing stories as well.
3. Imagine how many times you have had to write your name. Now imagine if the length of your name had been a couple letters shorter.
3b. Turns out a longer name (3 additional letters) probably has only wasted you a few hours (3-6 depending on a couple assumptions) but make sure to tell your parents they owe you those hours back.
4. I remember thinking Google Wave was going to be one of the coolest innovations ever. Now it is going away and highlights the point that amazing technology does not equal amazing product.
5. It would be great if people carried "catch up on my life" 1 pagers in their pockets. This time anytime you meet someone after a long time you read the 1 pager and immediately get caught up on basic events on a person's life so that the conversation can be deeper than the usual: what do you do for a living?, where do you live?, etc.
